My thoughts for Great Britain (see Austria with subtle amendments)

Mercedes will continue their domination with Hamilton and Rosberg taking out the top 2 positions.
The 4 positions will be taken out by Williams and Ferrari. The choice is yours but my feeling is that Bottas will again come out the best of this group.
The revival of Grosjean and Maldonado in their Lotus has been refreshing and these 2 should fill positions 7 & 8.
Now, it gets a little more difficult. Sauber, Red Bull, Toro Rosso & Force India will be fighting it out for the last 2 points paying positions. My feeling is that a Force India and Red Bull will fill these.
McLaren have been improving since round 1 but this round will prove frustrating as far as points are concerned.
Marussia will again get both their cars home.

Bit late, but went for Vettel (could've gone for Hamilton or Hulkenberg instead). Inspired pit stop timing saw him finish far ahead of where he really should've but it got a bit overshadowed by Hamilton doing likewise to secure the win.
